Is there a way to change the new blue bootsplash/start up logo back to the old fashioned darker colors? I'm not entirely hip on modifying the look and feel of the startup screens and the new blue is just really, really garish. I know it's a trivial thing, but I've hunted all over the forums for information and my searches are either generally termed "unusable" by the forum search tool or the only responses from it are totally unrelated to my query. And I don't mean grub, I mean the Sabayon logo screen that shows while processes are starting up.

You can use Portage to merge an earlier version of the relevant package. For example, if you are using KDE and you want the artwork from SL 5.0 KDE then you would use the following commands as root user in a Konsole window:

When I boot my machine, GRUB starts. It gives me the option to boot sabayon, sabayon in safe mode and windows. When I choose sabayon, at that point, a giant blue screen with the weird tri-leaved blue Sabayon logo shows up with a progress bar at the bottom. This does it's usual Initializing the Kernel, then Booting the system, etc. How do I change THAT screen away from the bright blue back to the old darker colors? I don't even know what you call that, but that's what I'm looking to change.

After that, my Gnome login screen comes up and lets me log into the GUI graphically.

Yeah, I tried to post that I had gotten this issue resolved about an hour ago, and it kept giving me forum post errors. I didn't mean the PEOPLE, mind, just the overloaded forum, haha. Sorry about the ambiguity.
